by Authors: Tom Clancy

Mass Market Paperback
Average Customer Rating:

Best-selling Author Strikes Again!!!

Best selling author Tom Clancy's third book, Patriot Games, is an excellent action/drama story. Jack Ryan, the main character, is on vacation in London with his wife, Cathy, and his daughter, Sally. Jack is meeting his wife and daughter, at an outside restaurant when a bomb goes off. Jack sees the Royal Family's limousine being attacked by terrorists. Jack takes out the terrorists and saves the Royal Family from death, and becomes a hero to London.
There is action and suspense in Patriot Games, but you'll have to read the book to find out more.
This book is definably NOT for younger readers. With over 25 F-words and 14 Sh- words, intense violence, sex, and gore, Patriot Games for mature teenagers and adults. But all in all, the book has very good detail, plot, and it is very easy reading. There are 540 pages.

One Of Clancy's Greatest Books To Date!!!!

This book is Clancy at some of his best. The action starts in the first chapter. In the chapter, CIA anylast Jack Ryan witnesses a shooting while vacationing in London. Jack interveines and kills two of the shooters. One shoots him in the shoulder and escapes. Later Jack learnes he saved the Prince of Wales, his wife, and their new son. He also learns that the attack was done by one of the most dangerous and secretive Irish terrorist organizations, the Ulster Liberation Army or ULA. Soon, Ryan and his family become a target of international terrorism. This book was exciting! A page turner indeed. Besides a few dull filler chapters, every chapter is as exciting as the previous. The smaller sub-plots provide action in every page. A bit long when you first look at it, but it is truly a thriller. Clancy is the king of detial. The man could write a 1,000 page story on a trip to the grocery store and still keep you entertained. Not that I want him to write this though. An all around great book! "Two Thumbs Up!"

Must Read!

This book is excellent. I have read two other Clancy books before and this was my first plunge into the so-called Jack Ryan series. It absolutely confirmed my interest in this series. I recommend any reader interested in counter-terrorism and military action to read this work.
